Fragile is a framework for developing optimization algorithms inspired by Fractal AI and running them at scale.

• Provides classes and an API for easily developing planning algorithms
• Provides an classes and an API for function optimization
• Build in visualizations of the sampling process
• Fully documented and tested
• Support for parallelization and distributed search processes

FractalAI is based on the framework of non-equilibrium thermodynamics, and can be used to derive new mathematical tools for efficiently exploring state spaces.

The principles of our work are accessible online:

• Arxiv manuscript describing the fundamental principles of our work.
• Blog that describes our early research process.
• Youtube channel with videos showing how different prototypes work.
• GitHub repository containing a prototype that solves most Atari games.

Check out the getting started section of the docs, or the examples folder.

The fragile docker container will execute a Jupyter notebook accessible on port 8080 with password: fragile

You can pull a docker image from Docker Hub running:

    docker pull fragiletech/fragile:version-tag

Where version-tag corresponds to the fragile version that will be installed in the pulled image.

This framework has been tested in Ubuntu 18.04 and supports Python 3.6, 3.7 and 3.8. If you find any problems running it in a different OS or Python version please open an issue.

It can be installed with pip install fragile["all"].

You can find the pinned versions of the minimum requirements to install the core module in requirements.txt, and the pinned versions of all the optional requirements in requirements-all.txt.

Detailed installation instructions can be found in the docs.

You can access the documentation on Read The Docs.

Upcoming features: (not necessarily in order)

• Fix documentation and add examples for the distributed module
• Upload Montezuma solver
• Add new algorithms to sample different state spaces.
• Add a benchmarking module
• Add deep learning API

Contribution are welcome. Please take a look at contributining and respect the code of conduct.
